Using dominated convergence theorem to move limit inside the integral

I have to prove that the following limit goes to $0$:



$$lim_ntoinfty int_-infty^infty left|u(omega)bigg(frac2n^2omega^2(1-cos(omega/n))-1bigg)right|^2dw$$



where $u in L^2(mathbbR)$.



I want to move the limit inside to that I can substitute:



$$cos(1/t) = 1 - frac12t^2 + frac14!t^4 - text... $$



And the proof is completed.



I was thinking about using the dominated convergence theorem, but I am not sure how to use it. As a dominating sequence I would use that:



$$1-cos(t) leq t^2/2 $$



But then, what else should I make sure of?

We can use your inequality to show that
$$ 0 leq frac2(1-cos(t))t^2 leq 1$$
holds for $t in mathbbR$ .



If we define $f_n colon mathbbR to mathbbR$ to be your integrand, i.e.
$$ f_n(omega) = |u(omega)|^2 left[1 - frac2 (1-cos(omega /n))(omega/n)^2right]^2 , , $$
we immediately obtain $|f_n(omega)| leq |u(omega)|^2$ for all $omega in mathbbR$ and every $n in mathbbN$ from the above inequality.



We take $|u|^2$ as the dominating function from the theorem. It is integrable, as we have $u in L^2 (mathbbR)$ . Therefore the dominated convergence theorem allows us to interchange the limit and the integration. But now we are done, since $(f_n)_nin mathbbN$ converges to zero pointwise almost everywhere (as mentioned in your question).

    @giovanni_13 Because of the absolute value. We have $|2(1-cos(x))x^-2 -1| = 1 - 2(1-cos(x))x^-2$ and now you can use the inequality. But it only shows that this quantity is $geq 0$ instead of $leq 0$, so you cannot conclude that all integrals vanish. One must be very careful when applying inequalities to expressions with absolute value bars.
